背景：肠功能衰竭(IF)是指正常功能的肠道质量降低到足以消化和吸收成人或儿童体重维持所需的营养和液体所需的最低水平。儿科IF的流行病学数据很少。本研究的目的是确定意大利需要家庭外营养(HPN)的儿童慢性IF(CIF)的患病率、发病率、地区分布和潜在诊断。方法：在19个意大利中心选择当地的研究人员，作为儿科HPN的参考或有儿科胃肠病专家或外科医生的工作人员，并已与意大利儿科胃肠病、肝病和营养学会就IF进行合作。在2016年12月1日对在家儿童进行的这项关于肠外营养(PN)的调查中，要求提供的数据包括患者姓名的首字母、出生年份、性别、家庭居住地和决定是否接受肠外营养的基本诊断。结果：我们记录了145例老年CIF患者的HPN
Background: Intestinal failure (IF) is the reduction in functioning gut mass below the minimal level necessary for adequate digestion and absorption of nutrients and fluids for weight maintenance in adults or for growth in children. There is a paucity of epidemiologic data on pediatric IF. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence, incidence, regional distribution and underlying diagnosis of pediatric chronic IF (CIF) requiring home parenteral nutrition (HPN) in Italy. Methods: Local investigators were selected in 19 Italian centers either of reference for pediatric HPN or having pediatric gastroenterologists or surgeons on staff and already collaborating with the Italian Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition with regard to IF. Data requested in this survey for children at home on Parenteral Nutrition (PN) on 1 December 2016 included patient initials, year of birth, gender, family's place of residence and underlying diagnosis determining IF. Results: We recorded 145 CIF patients on HPN aged
